Ford Not wearing an AB

Post by Ark Hunter »

I don't blame him in this case. Looks like Ford is sporting an IndianaJonesShop.com "official" hat after he got slimed at the Nick Kids Choice Awards. Looks like he had fun with it though. (see other pictures in that gallery) http://www.hfm2.com/photopost1/showphoto.php/photo/7065

I wonder if there's video available of this? Probably on youtube...

They probably just provided a throw away hat - I think someone mentioned this somewhere else on here.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. He doesn't look as gray with wet hair.

No offense but I don't think you're ever gonna see Ford wearing an AB outside of the movie, AB's arent very easily available hats.

I mean we know how to get them. But how much easier is it to pick up an official hat from a store?

I think Ford can get one anytime he wants. ;) (probably has one or more from Steve directly already) , but I think mooniteman is right, they just gave him a "throw away" hat for the show. (and to subliminally get that "official hat" into people's minds who aren't as picky as us.

well I noticed it but not so much the ring it seemed to be more the stud when looking in other pictures ( most noticeably the one where he's next to Ashlee Simpson) I think there,s also slime hanging from his ear lobe.

Uh...nope. I think it's closer to his elbow than his ear.

ZING!

Is it just me or does the DP Ford is wearing look better than the DPs of yester-year? Maybe they have upped their quality for the upcoming film.

That's probably one of the high end beaver felt versions.

Yeah, you are probably right. I was considering pickup on if it was their standard wool fed. No way am I paying $500 plus for that when I have an AB on order. If I wanted to spend $500 on a fedora I would just purchase another AB.

I don't know. It looks very much like the one I linked to in the IndyShop. Go check it out. (bound brim edge and all)

Honestly it looks just like my DP vintage Indy wool crushable, which does have a bound edge.

Looks like a Stetson Windham, which has a bound edge, to me. Will the slime make it taper?

It's a Stetson, of course it will taper!

Good point on the bound edge! The high end beaver doesn't have it, but one of the wool DP versions does.
